The world’s best known writer of science fiction, Sir Arthur C Clarke was the first to propose satellite communications in 1945. One of his short stories inspired the World Wide Web, while another was later expanded to make the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, which he co-wrote with director Stanley Kubrick. He has lived in Sri Lanka since 1956. This is the final video of a remarkable man of optimism and vision for us to cherish forever:
I for one shall much miss Arthur C. Clark. He did indeed both entertain me and stretch my mind. I would be a lesser man were it not for his life.
